Paul Cluver Estate Elgin Sauvignon Blanc 2011 92 points



Clear, pale straw with yellow reflections.

Clean, high intensity, ripe kiwi, fleshy apricot, peach, peppery spice, floral complexity, mineral texture.

Dry, fresh and juicy with high acidity, creamy broad texture and full, crunchy, sandyt mineral follows through, perfect moderate alcohol of 13% abv.

Now, but fruit will hold until 2017+, yet like older vintages will cellar well an dmay past it's 10 years.

One of the top 20 Sauvignon Blanc of 2012
